Function
Specifies that the Derby
Network Client should append JDBC trace information to a trace file. The file
can be specified by the
traceFile=path
attribute. If you do not specify a trace file but you specify the
traceDirectory=path
attribute, the trace information is appended to the default file. If you do not
specify traceFileAppend=true, any previous version of the trace file is
overwritten.
For more information about tracing, see "Network client tracing" in the
Derby Server and Administration Guide. See traceDirectory=path
and
traceLevel=value
for other attributes related to tracing.
Combining with other attributes
This attribute must be specified in conjunction with either the
traceFile=path attribute or the traceDirectory=path attribute. You
can also combine this attribute with other attributes.
Example
-- enable tracing on an existing database, appending to the
-- specified file
jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/mydb;traceFile=trace.out;traceFileAppend=true
-- enable tracing on an existing database, appending to the default file
-- within the specified directory, relative to the Derby home directory
jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/mydb;traceDirectory=mytracedir;traceFileAppend=true
